Into Battle. Winston S. Churchill War Speeches. Illustrated
228 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 2h51min.
Into Battle is the first volume in the celebrated series of Winston S. Churchill’s wartime speeches, covering the critical period from 1938 to 1941. These speeches mark Churchill’s rise to the premiership and his early leadership during Britain’s darkest and most perilous days of World War II.
Delivered in Parliament, over radio broadcasts, and at public events, Churchill’s speeches rallied the British people with unmatched resolve and stirring rhetoric. From his famous declaration “We shall fight on the beaches” to his solemn tribute to “Their Finest Hour,” these addresses were not just words—they were weapons of morale, determination, and national unity in the face of overwhelming odds.
This collection shows Churchill at his most inspiring and defiant, as he leads Britain through the fall of France, the Battle of Britain, and the Blitz. His speeches are filled with honesty about the gravity of the situation, but also with unwavering confidence in ultimate victory.
Into Battle stands as a historic record of leadership through crisis. Churchill’s ability to articulate the values of freedom, courage, and perseverance made him not just a wartime prime minister, but a symbol of resistance to tyranny. This volume captures the voice that helped save a nation—and inspired the world.
